Hello, A while back I asked for help with selecting a weather station. This is a quick update.
Thanks to everyone who provided input. The Club decided to select the Davis system. It has been purchased in the fall and we have it installed in a temporary location on the Clubhouse. It will move to a better location in the Spring. If anyone is interested, here is a link to the weather page: https://nsc.ca/nsc_weather/dev.php. We are still working on the design. Thank you again Marek Dziedzic Nepean Sailing Club Ottawa, ON _____________________________________________ From: Marek Dziedzic Sent: Wednesday, October 7, 2020 7:16 PM To: Stus-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Subject: weather station Hi, This is not C&C related, but certainly sailing-related... I have a general question to anyone who is involved in running a weather station for the sailing club (or similar). Our Club had various weather stations over the years, but the last one failed about a year ago and we did not have anything this season. I was asked to investigate what we could use. I have two options already: Davis Vantage Pro 2 and WeatherFlow Tempest. Davis w/s is reasonably high-end, but it also has a rather high-end price. WeatherFlow is very new, has very attractive pricing and no moving parts. This will be a Sailing Club w/s, so the most important parameters are wind speed and direction; anything else is a bonus. Thanks Marek Dziedzic Ottawa, On
